Abstract：
AIM:The present study aimed to examine the survival benefit of adjuvant chemotherapy for the patients with stage IB gastric cancer according to the second English edition of the Japanese Classification of Gastric Carcinoma (2nd JCGC). PATIENTS AND METHODS:In total, 201 consecutive patients who underwent curative surgery for stage IB gastric cancer according to the 2nd JCGC were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS:Seventy-four (36.8%) received adjuvant chemotherapy, and 72 (35.8%) had stage II diseases as defined by the 3rd JCGC. The 5-year overall survival (OS) was 86.9%. Multivariate analysis showed that adjuvant chemotherapy was an independent prognostic factor. In the sub-group analysis by stage according to the 3rd JCGC, those with stage II disease had better OS in the adjuvant-chemotherapy group than in the group treated with surgery alone (5-year OS 94.5% vs. 73.9%, p=0.002). CONCLUSION:Among patients with stage IB gastric cancer by 2nd JCGC, and especially patients with stage II defined by the 3rd JCGC, should be considered for adjuvant-chemotherapy.
